Rabin was murdered, in 1995, by Yigal Amir, who was a member of Eyal. Some have speculated that Eyal is loosely affiliated with Kahane Chai and Kach, based on shared memberships. Speculative, at best, although others may have evidence of stronger links.
Kahane Chai has publicly assumed responsibility for a number of terrorist attacks of Palestinians, including Baruch Goldstein's slaughter of 29 people in the Ibrahim Mosque in 1994. Since March 1994, both Kahane and Kach have been outlawed by the Israeli government.
It reall shouldn't be that difficult to add thia feature. Most of the work has already been written, and adding it to Linux should require no more than simple cut n paste job.
England opressed the world and tried to bend everyone to their own empirical will
Empirical will? Sounds like a truly fascinating contribution to philosophy. I would have imagined that the concept of "will" is somewhat foreign to empiricism.
If you really want X-windows, there are alternatives, I'm not quite sure what you mean by native PDF; if you are looking for perfect text rendering on screen, it is now available in those same alternatives.
The PowerPC 970 supports a bridge mode that allows minimally modified applications (photoshop uses a plugin) to take advantage of some 64 bit features, such as accessing more than 4 GB of memory.
The Athlon64 may offer something similar, but unfortunately, the marketing jargon associated with both chips is impenetrable at the moment
Yes, there's a class named NSPasteboard in the AppKit. Unfortunately, apple has not seen fit to write a manpage for "pbcopy", so I'm not sure if there is a way to individually access the more specialized pasteboards--MacOSX has at least five of them.
Fair use is a judicially constructed doctrine, so although parts of the "fair use" standards are codified in 17 USC 107, case law is more relevant. In particular, see the 1984 case Harper and Row v Nation, 471 U.S. 539. In that case, The Nation was found to have infringed copyright for printing around 300 words from Gerald Ford's 200,000 word memoir, A Time to Heal.
It's worth pointing out, however, that The Nation reprinted content focusing on the Nixon pardon--the portions most likely to attract the reading public.
Slashdot seems to be attracting all sorts of riffraff these days. Imagine, a nerd who can't program.... It just so happens that the Mac has a superb development library, largely inherited from NextStep, that's ideal for rapid application development. It's also relatively easy to port and use Linux applications to this platform.
When Apple introduces the Xserve G5, presumably you will be able to get one without a decent video card. Personally, I faced the opposite challenge-- how to elevate myself out of the nVidia GeForce4MX/Radeon 7500 mediocrity for under $1500. (I though it would be nice to experiment with programming shaders, and in any case, didn't want to be locked out of the next Quartz Extreme.) So, I got myself a PowerMac G4 with a Radeon 9000 Pro. The 9600 Pro would have been more resistant to obsolescence, but alas, Apple doesn't seem to offer such an option.
Those are all storage devices, except for the DV stuff. While the comment 2up is lame, it does raise the point that 1394 is not an island because as far as I know no one is making input devices using it. Cameras don't count.
Maybe a firewire audio interface will fit your rather stringent criteria. I don't think you'll find more conventional firewire Human Interface Devices, as there's really no market for them.
An ICBM? You've got no imagination. Johndale Solem, in his paper "Nuclear Explosive Propelled Interceptor for Deflecting Objects on Collision Course with Earth", proposes deflecting the asteroid with a warheadless craft, propelled by 2.5kt nuclear bombs. The kinetic energy of the resulting collision would deflect the asteroid away from Earth.
And if you miss, just launch another one. A well designed interceptor should be able to intercept an asteroid one week before armageddon, in just six hours.
When I was a kid, my primary source of knowledge was the 13th edition of the Encylopededia Britannica, published nearly 50 years before I was born. I still have it, though I rarely use it now, as the bindings are shot. Naturally, it was supplemented by a few thousand other volumes.
The 13th edition, btw, was basically the 11th edition with 3 supplemental volumes covering the World War.

I've found that if you place the case under the desk, the fan noise is less noticeable.
but it keeps everything inside of it nice and cold (right now: CPU at 35C
Interesting use of the word "cold".

Do tell.
If you really want X-windows, there are alternatives, I'm not quite sure what you mean by native PDF; if you are looking for perfect text rendering on screen, it is now available in those same alternatives.
Such as this?
I have heard, however, that Panther's PDF viewer is quite fast; the current MacOSX PDF tools, though still usable, are somewhat slow.
And when exactly is Longhorn going to ship?
I've heard 2004. I've heard 2005.
Now you can debate if those libraries are part of the OS or not....
It's been done. Witness the perennial Linux v. GNU/Linux debates.

Because it's all nice and fast. Benchmarks, longer bars, higher numbers! It's soooo much faster than those lousy PCs! Look 64-bits! Let's all buy one!
A perfectly sensible reason to buy a Powermac G5, if you ask me.
Hmm, so replacing a XServe with a pSeries is hassle free? And the binaries still run? Amazing.

Since when is intel not proprietary?
Since AMD started producing x86 chips?
If you want think different" (run an application outside of the most common uses), you would be forced to ditch the Mac.
All you PC users are like sheep.
If you want to think differently, you program your own software. At the very least, you compile it yourself.

I think it's one of those honeypots.
Somehow I think atoi(), [and] malloc() [...] are going to fall under the "who the hell cares??" category
.
Ah, yes, but SCO has a few surprises for C++ programmers who prefer to use new() and input operators.
Why is SGI using atoi(), anyway? On my machine , atoi() is deprecated in favor of strtol()
I though the "code hasher" was written by Eric S Raymond
When I was a kid, my primary source of knowledge was the 13th edition of the Encylopededia Britannica, published nearly 50 years before I was born. I still have it, though I rarely use it now, as the bindings are shot. Naturally, it was supplemented by a few thousand other volumes.
The 13th edition, btw, was basically the 11th edition with
3 supplemental volumes covering the World War.
CPU frequency of the fastest version of each model;
8100: 110 MHz PPC601
7200: 120 MHz PPC601
6300: 120 MHz PPC603e
5400LC:200 MHz PPC603ev
The 8100 had 3 NuBus and one PDS slot, the 7200 had three PCI slots, the 6300 had a LC PDS slot, and the 5400 had one PCI slot.
btw, the 6100 also came in an AV model. The 6100 was the entry level powermac.
